Will this work on my mac? The tech specs here say it works with macs up until 10.4.7. Does this mean it won't work with mine that's now up to 10.4.11?

Yes, it works with my Macbook Pro which is running Leopard. It works wonderfully from the USB cable, I'm just having issues getting the bluetooth set up!

It also works just fine with my iMac, running the latest Leopard (10.5). In fact I bought this printer at the Apple store.

I agree with the two previous people who posted comments about the Canon MP610 printer. It has been working flawlessly since Feb. 2008 after I purchased a new iMac running OSX 10.5.2 (Leopard). I am also using a USB cable. Last week I finally had to replace two of the color ink tanks. Either Canon has more ink in their tanks or it uses less ink than my previous EPSON printers. And I'm not using my printer any less than before. I also like having individual tanks for each color, CMYK plus pigment black for text only documents. Naturally, I ordered new ink tanks from Amazon because of "best price" and free delivery. I agree with the two previous people who posted comments about the Canon MP610 printer.

My 610 works and produces above the norm consistently, had it since 2007 and I've had HP's, Epson's , etc and what really makes the 610 shine is to scan, save to desktop, and attach to an email, documents, photos, text and flawlessy. In fact I got Canons website for upgrades for software etc. and thought why??????????????. If it ain't broke........................Good all around every day machine but a photo above 8x10 should be handled by a Canon, I believe 9000 pro or an Epson 3880 for superior print quality!

I just tonight got it working wirelessly on a MacBook Pro and iMac.Both are running Snow Leopard.The secret is ... on Snow Leopard you do not have to install any software. Snow Leopard detects it automatically (Bonjour?) and just sets everything up as needed when you need. I never used the CD included with the printer.I love it so far. It is working great for printing and scanning.

I am still on 10.8.5 myself. Yes the Epson R2880 is compatible with your Mac. I was selected for a two man show with my photos and the artist's watercolors. It was very dramatic and well received. All of my rings were on the Epson R2880 and 4 of thelm were sold the first two hour of the show. It does a GREAT job. My prices were in the $200 range for the large prints and $167 for the 11 x 17 inch prints (framed of course). Enjoy ithe printer! Bob Deffeyes

For all u mac os x 10.10 yosemite users out there: CANON IS NO LONGER SUPPORTING THIS PRINTER WITH SOFTWARE UPDATES. Reason: "too old." But my almost-7yr-old is still working great. Too bad. My next printer will not be a canon.

I have a Mac computer however I use it with an Hp. I have Adobe illustrators cs5 for Mac and intend to use it with my Epson. I can't imagine that it wouldn't work with a MAC but call Epson to get more details or go on their website. Hope this helps

Hi --I have a mac. I am interested in a black and white laser printer that copies and prints. I don't really need a scanner. Is there another printer that prints for a mac and copies? I really like the duplexing feature and don't want to give that up. Any suggestions? Should I just by this printer or is there something else out there that fits my needs?Thanks

yes it works with mac products. The system requirements are: Mac OS X v 10.3.9, 10.4, 10.5, 10.6. It is not wireless so it cannot air printer wirelessly from iPad or iPhone. You would need a wireless printer. With HP you would look out for anything with a "w". So CP1525nw, M175nw, etc.

I don't know if this printer used to come with a disk containing printer drivers, but these days, why would you want a disk that was guaranteed to be obsolete? This is a 15-year old printer! Nothing on the printer drivers disk will be usable, let alone current.Mac OS X systems will recognize the printer and install the right driver automatically, given the printer's IP address. (Choose JetDirect for the printing protocol.)Windows users can download the right printer driver from HP.com.Skip the disk!

Works with Mac Lion just fine. In the advanced printer settings you get the option of two sided printing with different 'binding' options. Also shows as an option from iOS5 iDevices.

If it has a USB plug-in, and there was nothing that I had to download like you do with printers and other devices for the computer. All I did was plug it into the USB port and it immediately worked. Was VERY simple! So I would say IF your Mac has a USB port, WHY NOT?!

All I know is that the printer is fully compatible with Mac Snow Leopard. A quick call to their help line would answer any questions.

I don't know anything about Mac's. This printer works wonderfully well for my pc and my laptop. I have used the scan, copy, and print modes and am happy. Haven't had the need to fax anything, but I don't have any reason to think it won't work just fine.

Hi Rebecca, save YOUR MONEY, I bought it and installed on my iMac,it would let me print a 1/4 fold card but not give me a choice on printing the inside of a normal card. I had used the older version for a few years on my PC so when I switched to Mac a year ago I ordered the mac version and it did not work. You would think someone would test all phases of a program before they put it on the market. I returned it and did buy the PC version since I have Parallels on my iMac and can run PC programs. but I'd rather have the Mac version and just get away from the PC. Hope I was some help to you.

In general, Lexmark and Canon make USB inkjet printers that work well with both Windows and Mac. IMPORTANT: while most of their USB printers are Win+Mac compatible, a few of them are not. If possible, try to find out either by walking into a store and finding the compatibility on the box or reading comments or checking the manufacturer's webpage about the printer. For instance, this URL is for the Canon Pixma MP495. http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/consumer/products/printers_multifunction/photo_all_in_one_inkjet_printers/pixma_mp495 Click on "Specifications". Roughly 2/3 down the webpage you'll find "OS Compatibility". I haven't tried HP on an Apple product and I keep finding very mixed reviews about their Mac drivers, but apparently Apple thinks they're good; I spec'd out a new iMac yesterday and the top 3 recommended printers were all Hewlett Packard. I guess it's because only HP is using AirPrint at the moment. I haven't checked Epson in a few years but my experience with them is that they make excellent Windows printers but the Mac drivers from Epson are horrible and will cause you to hate your printer. (I'm hoping they've fixed this but if they have I haven't heard about it.) Good luck!

It has nothing to do with what operating system you have. It all depends on your printer. Is your printer compatible with MAC. If so you get the ink kit made for your printer.

Yes you can print to this printer from a MAC. If you want to print from an iPad--use the third party program Printopia--works great.

http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/consumer/products/printers_multifunction/laser_printers/imageclass_lbp6200d#DriversAndSoftwareThere are several versions of drivers for Mac OS, from the newest Mavericks all the way back to Mac OS 8?!Once you have the drivers installed (your Mac may do it for you automatically), you can print to this printer.And yes, I am answering this question from experience.
